‘I think maybe since the diagnosis,’ she explained when asked what she meant. 

It seems like you’re constantly feeling exhausted. I’ve found myself feeling this way quite often due to my ill health, it feels like I was merely trying to push through each day.

Blair continued: ‘And now it’s like, wait, I realize I don’t know what my goals are.’

Instead, she mentioned that her focus has shifted towards her career lately, expressing a strong desire to return to acting. This is an endeavor she is currently pursuing diligently.

At the event, Selma donned vintage Betsy Johnson attire to honor the legendary designer by presenting her with a Lifetime Achievement Award.

At the gathering, Selma and Betsey donned identical gowns, but Selma’s had a silvery hue while Betsey’s was gilded.

As a child, Betsey served as my role model. While many of us adored designers like Chanel and Cacharel, Betsey was the fashion icon for younger people because her designs were affordable yet stylish.

We could also visit this shop,” Blair enthused, “which seemed tailor-made for individuals such as ourselves, or those with an unconventional flair.

She went on, adding, “Moreover, Betsey was always fun-loving. I recall performing cartwheels on the runway, and she was like my spiritual counterpart.

‘I was always doing cartwheels, too, and I was synonymous with Betsey Johnson growing up. 

Inform my buddies that if I earn good grades, my mom will take me on a shopping trip to New York, specifically at Betsey Johnson.

Selma shared a video of the night on Instagram and gushed over it.

 She captioned the post with a gushing tribute to Betsey and The Daily Front Row.

What an unforgettable evening! As @dailyfrontrow recognized and celebrated my cherished icons, presenting the Lifetime Achievement Award to betseyjohnson, that moment feels like a personal career milestone for me.
